Little Egret with Prey
I used my longest lens to track this little egret round a lagoon at Snettisham in Norfolk. Amongst the burst of shots I captured was this one, as it flips a tiny fish in its beak. I had preset the exposure to minus one stop to avoid the brilliant white egret overexposing in bright early morning sunshine.
